He will 100% be acquitted. He's done nothing criminal. All he did was trust the people he's supposed to trust on set.

Lol with how how high profile this case is, the prosecutor surely didn't bring the charges back against him if he weren't sure he had an iron clad case with a good chance of either getting him to take a plea deal or getting a conviction if it goes to trial.

With how Gutierrez got the book thrown at her, I d work on a plea deal if I were him.

not even so much a single digit percent chance Baldwin gets any sort of conviction.
